This study looked at whether a targeted nerve block, guided by ultrasound, can reduce chronic pain caused by shingles (postherpetic neuralgia). Researchers treated 34 adults whose pain continued despite other treatments. They measured pain levels and quality of life before and af…

This study tested whether a Quadroiliac Plane (QIP) block, a type of numbing injection, can reduce the need for strong painkillers after femur fracture surgery. Thirty adults having partial hip replacement were randomly assigned to receive the block or standard care. Researchers …

This study tested whether intravenous (IV) lidocaine can help improve sleep and quality of life in people with fibromyalgia, a condition causing widespread pain and fatigue. 51 adults with fibromyalgia who still had pain and sleep problems despite other treatments received IV lid…

This study looked at two types of nerve blocks to control pain after knee arthroscopy. Fifty adults were given either a standard block or a combined block targeting an extra muscle. Researchers measured pain levels, opioid use, and side effects to see which method works better.

This study looked at whether a special injection called an IPACK block, combined with a steroid shot, can help people with severe knee osteoarthritis who still have pain after other treatments. 98 adults over age 40 with advanced knee arthritis received the combination. Their pai…

This study tested a treatment called pulsed radiofrequency for frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis) in 32 patients aged 65 and older. The treatment uses ultrasound guidance to deliver mild electrical pulses to a nerve in the shoulder, aiming to reduce pain and improve movement w…

This study tested two different ultrasound methods combined with standard physical therapy for people with knee osteoarthritis. 46 adults with knee pain and stiffness took part. The goal was to see which technique better reduces pain and improves function. Results may help doctor…

This study compared two types of nerve blocks (QIPB and PENG) for pain relief after hip fracture surgery in 52 adults. Patients received one of the blocks after spinal anesthesia, and their pain levels and opioid use were tracked for 24 hours. The goal was to see which block prov…

This study looked at whether adding scapular stabilization exercises to standard shoulder rehab helps people with subacromial impingement syndrome, a common cause of shoulder pain. Sixty adults with shoulder pain were randomly assigned to either the special exercises or a convent…

This study tested two different ways to block a nerve in the shoulder using ultrasound guidance to treat long-lasting shoulder pain. 100 adults with pain that did not get better with standard treatments took part. The goal was to see which approach works better to reduce pain and…

This study tested whether a lidocaine spray applied to the cervix can reduce pain during intrauterine device (IUD) insertion. 90 women aged 18-45 who wanted an IUD took part. The goal was to see if this simple spray makes the routine procedure more comfortable.

This study looked at whether showing videos of different pain expressions helps patients describe their pain better than the usual 0-10 number scale. 240 adults who had surgery were asked which method they liked more and how clear each one was. The goal was to find a more patient…

This study explored whether magnesium deficiency impacts the success of steroid injections for back pain caused by disc problems. Researchers observed 118 adults who received the injection and tracked their pain and disability over three months. The goal was to see if low magnesi…

This study looked at 201 adults with chronic back pain who received a type of steroid injection for their pain. Researchers compared those who got sedation (medicine to relax) during the procedure to those who did not. The goal was to see if sedation changed how satisfied patient…

This study looked at 123 women who had a copper IUD placed for birth control. Researchers measured the angle between the uterus and cervix using ultrasound to see if it could predict whether the IUD would shift out of its correct position. The goal was to find a simple way to ide…

This study looked at 40 intensive care unit (ICU) patients to see if a simple heart ultrasound before dialysis could predict dangerous drops in blood pressure. Researchers measured heart function using several ultrasound markers. They found that certain measurements might help do…
